I must confess I’m not sure what you’re looking at, the car hasn’t changed direction dramatically or moved lanes. He’s also not wearing any hi vis at a poorly lit time of day, on a major roundabout at rush hour, plus no arm signal to indicate he’s moving lanes.OK. Stills and video clearly show him riding in the centre of the lane, without deviating, and the car coming over into his lane as it enters the roundabout.
The car was behind him and should've seen him....but was probably checking the mirrors for cars, & wasn't expecting a cyclist to be on a busy roundabout.
I totally agree though that he should've used the bike lane / subway to avoid such a busy section of road, & keep himself safe.
Lucky to escape with his life tbh, & bet he wont do it again.
